Lower Hunter Vegetation Mapping

This data is a compilation of existing vegetation mapping within the Lower Hunter region. Additional vegetation surveying has been undertaken in Cessnock LGA to refine existing mapping products. The data aims to provide a suitable resource to support regional sustainability planning, particularly the preparation of the Lower Hunter Regional Strategy and Regional Conservational Plan.\n\n* The GIS mapping data were obtained to inform sustainability planning for the Lower Hunter region, particularly to assist in informing the NSW Government review of the NSW Lower Hunter regional strategy and Lower Hunter regional conservation plan.\n* Once this review is complete, the second stage is to undertake a strategic assessment of proposed urban development and related infrastructure corridors. The NSW Government has entered into an agreement with the Commonwealth to conduct a strategic assessment of proposed urban development and related infrastructure corridors.\n\n* While reasonable efforts have been made to ensure that the contents of this dataset are factually correct, the Commonwealth does not accept responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of the contents, and shall not be liable for any loss or damage that may be occasioned directly or indirectly through the use of, or reliance on, the contents of this dataset.CC - Attribution (CC BY)\nThis work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Australia License.

本数据集为下亨特（Lower Hunter）区域现有植被测绘成果的汇编。研究团队已在塞斯诺克地方政府辖区（Cessnock Local Government Area，简称Cessnock LGA）内开展额外植被勘测工作，以优化现有测绘产品。本数据集旨在提供适配性资源，支撑区域可持续规划工作，尤其服务于《下亨特区域战略》与《下亨特区域保护计划》的编制。

* 本地理信息系统（Geographic Information System，简称GIS）测绘数据的获取，旨在为下亨特区域的可持续规划提供决策参考，尤其助力新南威尔士州（NSW）政府对《新南威尔士州下亨特区域战略》及《下亨特区域保护计划》的审议工作。
* 本次审议完成后，第二阶段将对拟议中的城市开发项目及相关基础设施廊道开展战略评估。新南威尔士州政府已与澳大利亚联邦政府达成协议，共同开展上述城市开发与基础设施廊道的战略评估工作。
* 尽管已通过合理措施确保本数据集内容的事实准确性，但澳大利亚联邦政府不对本数据集内容的准确性与完整性承担责任，亦不会对因使用或依赖本数据集内容而直接或间接引发的任何损失或损害承担法律责任。本数据集采用知识共享署名（CC BY，Creative Commons Attribution）许可。
